From 8536130aa27b0cee65fbffa9abfdcdbce6e7821f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Ryan C. Gordon" Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2018 01:23:49 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] assert: Use TerminateProcess() on Windows, vs ExitProcess (thanks, Jack!). "What I have done is use TerminateProcess rather than ExitProcess. ExitProcess will cause Microsoft's leak detection to continue, TerminateProcess won't. It is also technically wrong to use ExitProcess in the case of aborting the application.
